To protect your installations and household appliances, you need a circuit breaker. When choosing a circuit breaker, you need to consider its use and your installation. Be aware that there are different types of circuit breakers, including single-pole circuit breakers, double-pole circuit breakers, and triple-pole circuit breakers.
Triple-pole circuit breakers have a high breaking capacity in case of over-voltage or overload. They quickly and efficiently cut off the current, thereby eliminating any risk of fire. Their mission is to interrupt the current to eliminate a short circuit. The triple-pole circuit breaker is an essential protection device to prevent your household equipment from being damaged. It has three series-breaking chambers per pole. Moreover, it adapts to all three-phase circuits. Triple-pole circuit breaker models generally come in different ratings (6 A, 10 A, 16 A, 20 A, 32 A, 40 A, and 50 A). You must take this rating into account when choosing your triple-pole circuit breakers. For example, to protect your three-phase cooking appliances, a 20 A triple-pole circuit breaker is sufficient.
